So I didn't open this thread at first because of the title! Haha! I thought ick! It's going to be annoying if it starts with that. Then I saw that it said rant.... Haha! Totally agree.

My understanding is this information is required to be given out ahead of time. Most of it is listed on their website.

If they have been hired, they either meet the qualifications, or they have been given permission to tutor without meeting the requirements for some reason.

I agree you likely won't be asked. I would think that like a PP said that this is her way. A lot of women are like this. It is how they relate. They flirt without really even thinking about it. The feel like it helps build relationships and keep business. Casual flirting like that wouldn't bother me because it is more about her than him. As long as you aren't worried that he would take her up on anything, her flirting wouldn't bother me. My dh has had women actually come right out and ask him out. One of them wouldn't take I am married as a No. He said I am happily married. And she said do you fool around. Crazy!

Personally, I would email back and say you are sorry you didn't realize it was a holiday weekend, and just say that you will give it more time to respond before opening a dispute.

I have TMJ

I think the word release is better than delete. I actually had to reread it a couple times before I got it. Delete doesn't capture the feeling of living with then letting go of clutter the way release does. I probably would over look Delete a title, but I would read Release. I like your subtitle, and it would make a great title all it's own. But Delete takes away from it for me.

4 year olds don't really distinguish between real life and "play" the way adults or older kids do. It is sort of a fluid thing.Because play is such a big part of a child's day, it is easy for them carry it into times of not playing without even thinking about it. I don't know if that makes sense. But my little ones always just sort of played or imagined all the time.

I don't know what class she is taking, but one that I took as elementary ed college student was designed to confuse us. It was set up to help put us in the students shoes. Its purposes was to teach us how to teach math not to teach us math. It was a crazy class, but it was a requirement.

A family friend won the lottery. I can't remember how much but it was hundreds of millions. They had a great life. It did bring people out of the woodwork. But they set up parameters of what to do with it. Each child/family member got a certain amount each year. And they gave to certain charities. But they had strong clear parameter for others asking for money. They didn't go bankrupt. Nothing bad happened to them as a result. It was really surreal. They did some crazy things but mostly they were not extravagant. He bought and wore 10 rings. And they did some other things like that. But they mostly went on with life.

We believe in having an emergency fund and saving for a rainy day. But we had had our emergency and it's raining right now! So we have used most of our funds. We are barely keeping our heads above water due to medical bills.

For hot sides, we like baked beans, mac and cheese, potatoes and steamed or roasted veggies.

I did talk to my ped about my 7 yo ds's possible ADHD. And I did need a referral to be seen by the office I choose. (ins did not require it. The Dr did.) But I wound up not really needing to. I choose an office recommended by a school counselor. I asked around a lot. I spent more than 6 months looking for someone. I did not go with the ped recommended offices. And the nurse have a referral without checking with the Dr we saw. So I didn't really need anything from the ped. We opted for a full nueropsych evaluation. It was expensive! But it was good. We get the results next week.

We have a bench in one side to save space. We have a chair on each end for adults. And our oldests and youngest have chairs. When the little ones move from a high chair, they sit in this tall wooden chair with a back and sides. It is sort of a transition chair. It works well for us.

I haven't read this, but it looks good. Found Faithful

It's just an expression that means you need to get serious about this - take a hard look at what you doing etc.

Do they know you are Jewish? Maybe they were just surprised that he said that considering you are Jewish. JW was my first thought too. But otherwise I have no idea.

Yep this! Getting guardianship if all parties are willing is pretty straight forward. Consult a lawyer, but do the rest yourself. You will need to file guardianship papers with the court. You will have a hearing and get the paperwork you need from the clerk. It's is not hard. You will need to look at your local laws.

I thought it was just me. I hate this so much!! I am hoping one of the kids is the next IT person, so I can "retire" :)

Can you bring her TV from home? We brought a lot of my grandma's things from home. But she was there for 2 months.

Maybe another room or roommate? When we had that issue with my grandma, we were able to get her on another room. It helped a lot.

How frustrating for them to have to do that. But that is wonderful that they now have no further DHS involvement! Feel free to message me if you need to or have any questions. It is a tough road especially since they are grieving the loss of their daughter too. What a horrible situation for the family right now. But I am glad he is okay, and that he got to go home! I think even though they are older being at home is just where he needs to be. I will be praying for them (if that is okay.)
